Principle



Capabilities

Tensile, Flex, Compression

  • Tensile (ASTM D638, ISO 527, ASTM D1708, ASTM D882): ability to resist breaking in tension (strength)

  • Flex (ASTM D790, ISO 178): ability to resist deformation under load

  • Compression (ASTM D695): ability to withstand compressive loads before fracturing

  • Testing temperatures (-40°C to 250°C)

Specimen/Sample Types

  • ISO - Type I

  • ASTM - Type I, IV, V, 1BA, microtensile, film
